Description

A neighborhood sushi destination balances stellar flavor, theatrical presentation and notable value. Generous portions and standout rolls — some served aflame — join a $21 bento and traditional teapot teas to create a memorable meal. Service is consistently friendly and attentive, though weekend waits and occasional slow table turnover are common. The room feels cozy and slightly elegant, ideal for families and date nights, while a tucked-away location and limited front parking mean newcomers should plan ahead. Overall, excellent sushi and approachable prices keep locals coming back.

The atmosphere was fantastic, and the customer service was very friendly. My Dragon Roll was not only delicious but also adorable. I didn't even check this place out beforehand, so I was pleasantly surprised. The location could be better, as it's easy to overlook and parking is only available behind the restaurant, which might confuse some visitors. However, this place is definitely worth a visit. I can't wait to return when I have more money to spend!

Tonight, we ordered the Bento and it was absolutely excellent. It includes a fantastic variety of dishes for just $21, which is a great value. The food was delicious, and there was a generous portion on the plate. Our server, Kelly, was outstanding; when we mentioned it was our first visit, she offered some wonderful recommendations. We were very satisfied with our experience and I would highly recommend this place!

The service is excellent, the sushi is top-notch, and the prices are reasonable. It can get busy on weekends, so be prepared for a waitlist. Please note that they do not accept reservations for parties of fewer than six people.

On a Saturday night, we had to wait 35 minutes for a table. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was equally impressive. The service was decent, though we were seated for about 5 to 7 minutes before anyone came to take our order. However, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, as the sushi was delicious.

Wow! I can’t say enough good things about this place. The atmosphere is cozy yet still has a touch of elegance. The way the dishes are presented is simply stunning. The staff is friendly and approachable. Even the tea is a delightful experience! They serve it in a traditional teapot with cups, and I especially enjoyed the honey lemon flavor. I highly recommend checking this place out!
